Last Saturday whilst en route to Barking, travelled via Olympia to find a C stock set for Edgware Road... Normal occurance, weekend alteration or something of a rarity? Wasn't as comfortable as D stock mind  |

This was due to the operation of Timetable Notice 57/05 (engineering works Earl's Court to Acton Town/Richmond).
This has these service patterns:
Ealing Broadway to Acton Town
Wimbledon to Upminster
Wimbledon to Tower Hill
Olympia to Edgware Road.

Same thing next weekend! Lucky me, I have C stock all afternoon/evening on Saturday! Still, I've never taken a C stock to Olympia, so that'll be a first for me!

Add to that Wimbledon - Barking So D stocks from Wimbledon in each 20 min cycle work to :- Upminster - Barking - Upminster - Tower. .....well in theory, the whole thing was chaotic with trains hoplessly out of sequence.... assisted no end by neither Upminster nor Barking depots (at least) having any copies of the relevant timetable, drivers unsure of departure times, 20mph speed limit over most of the open sections and control having to call for the identity of most trains at Putney Bridge e/b .....so guess the storm trooper camera there is not up and running yet! |

It works - but only the Earls Court desk DMT can see images from it  Same goes for the ones at Hammersmith, Notting Hill Gate, Blackfriars, Sloane Square, West Ham (though not in use at the moment) and anywhere else where they've been fitted. |

What do you think about the new builders hat that the Putney Bridge one has acquired? ;D I'm going to call it bob.
